Product details

Common Name: Tri-Color Angelfish
Scientific Name: Pterophyllum scalare
Genus: Pterophyllum
Wild Origin: Selectively bred; wild ancestors originate from slow-moving rivers and floodplains of the Amazon Basin in South America.

The Tri-Color Angelfish is a visually striking freshwater fish that features a combination of black, white, and gold coloration. Its unique tri-color pattern, combined with its elegant, flowing fins, makes it a centerpiece in any aquarium. As a selectively bred variety of the common angelfish, the Tri-Color Angelfish is peaceful and hardy, making it a favorite for aquarists seeking a vibrant and graceful addition to their tank. These fish can grow up to 6 inches (15 cm) in height, including their fins, and live for 8-10 years with proper care.


Habitat and Tank Requirements:

Tri-Color Angelfish thrive in aquariums that replicate their natural environment, featuring tall plants, open swimming space, and gentle water flow.

Tank Size and Water Parameters:

PARAMETER RECOMMENDED
Tank Size Minimum 120 litres
Temperature 76-82°F (24-28°C)
pH 6.0-7.5
Hardness Soft to moderately hard water, 3-10 dGH

A tall aquarium is ideal for accommodating their vertical swimming habits and long fins. Use a soft, dark substrate to enhance their colors and add live plants such as Amazon swords, Vallisneria, or Anubias to create a natural environment. Driftwood and smooth rocks provide hiding spots and add to the tank’s aesthetics. Floating plants can diffuse light, helping to create a calm and secure atmosphere. A gentle filter ensures clean water without strong currents.

We Recommend:

These carefully selected options provide a well-balanced nutritional profile, ensuring that your fish receive the essential nutrients they need for optimal growth, vibrant colors, and overall health. By offering a variety of these high-quality foods, you can help maintain the vitality and well-being of your fish, promoting a healthy and thriving aquarium environment.

Behavior and Compatibility:

Tri-Color Angelfish are generally peaceful and social, preferring to be kept in small groups or as pairs. They may exhibit mild territorial behavior during breeding but are otherwise calm.

They make excellent tank mates for other non-aggressive fish such as tetras, rasboras, Corydoras, and dwarf gouramis. However, avoid housing them with aggressive species or very small fish that may be seen as prey.
